Six miles and six hours

It was busy, busy day. It started off with a six mile run down the bike trail and back. I got started about 9:45 so it was pretty toasty outside by the time I finished.

It was my first run in shorts this year! I feel like I've been getting my running mojo back a little bit with Spring time finally arriving.




My feet are definitely tired. Even in new shoes my feet still ache. I'm going to do my darnedest to add a swim workout and bike workout in each week after my race. My feet need a break from the pounding.




After running some errands I ended up at the house to work on unpacking. First order of business was setting up my little TV so I could "watch" The West Wing.

While I worked at unpacking boxes in the kitchen and hauling boxes upstairs, Brinkley spent time analyzing every inch his rope would allow him in the backyard.




Once he spotted the rabbits across the ditch, he was in über guard dog mode watching their every move. He'd stop every once in a while to check in on me but most of his time was spent keeping tabs on the backyard.

When I go back tomorrow I'm going to take his bed with me so he can rest and nap like he normally does. His back and forth up and down all the stairs is really making him sore and slightly limpy. He needs to learn to calm down some or he may end up with bigger problems.
